background: the aim of this study was to investigate muscle damage indicators and electromyography activities of quadriceps muscles at 25° of hip flexion in untrained healthy females after an eccentric exercise induced muscle fiber damage.   methods : a total of 14 healthy females participated in this pre-experimental study. the subjects performed maximal eccentric quadriceps contractions at 25...

objective:  unaccustomed and intense eccentric exercise is a common cause of delayed-onset muscle soreness (doms). there are multiple remedies for the treatment of doms, but its clinical and laboratory pieces of evidence are scarce. currently, the treatments proposed for doms are numerous and include pharmaceuticals, herbal remedies, stretching, massage, nutritional supplements, and other alter...

Australian Football is an intense team sport played over ~120 min on a weekly basis. To determine the effects of game and training load on muscle soreness and the time frame of soreness dissipation, 64 elite Australian Football players (age 23.8 ± 1.8 y, height 183.9 ± 3.8 cm, weight 83.2 ± 5.0 kg; mean ± SD) recorded perceptions of muscle soreness, game intensity, and training intensity on sca...

inflammation and pain induced by delayed onset muscle soreness (doms) can be induced by eccentric exercise or an unaccustomed activity. the condition can causes problems in exercising and for athletes. the purpose of this study was to assess the effect of 150mg curcumin supplementation immediately after intensive eccentric exercise. evaluations were made for total antioxidant capacity (tac), mu...

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OMEGA-3 FATTY ACID INTAKE AND MUSCLE SORENESS IN COLLEGIATE ROWERS Background: Intense exercise may result in delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), which is worsened with unaccustomed eccentric exercise, and is considered a major contributing factor to poor athletic performance. DOMS-related muscular inflammation appears to be especially prevalent in college-aged athlet...

current research attempted to compare the effect of 10-day oral supplementation with saffron and indomethacin in the prevention of delayed onset muscle soreness (doms). thirty-nine healthy and inactive male students divided into three groups: saffron (300 mg), indomethacin (75 mg), and control groups. muscle soreness protocol performed with 80% of 1rm in four sessions and each session had 20 re...
